Abstract
The purpose of the research is to develop and test the characteristics of durian's peels briquette as fuel material. It was tested by applying proximate analysis and was conducted in Laboratories. The researcher carbonized it at temperature 200-500 oC for 1.5hours. From the process of proximate analysis on 450oC carbonization temperature could be found that there is 77.87% Fixed Carbon (FC), 0.01% Moisture (M), 3.94% of Volatile Matter (VM) and 18.18% Ash (A). The chemical properties of briquettes gained 0.09% of moisture content, 0.99g/ml of density, 6,274.29kcal/kg of calorific value, the size of 100 mesh of briquettes composer particle have compressive strength at 15.10N/cm2 apply on 3.8cm of diameter briquette in high at 6.5cm.
